Comfortable and Quiet

4 of us stayed in a huge room upstairs in the guest house. The beds were very comfortable, the room was warm and equipped with 2 heaters, also a fridge. The guest house is located on a nice quiet street although very conveniently located with a short walk to the city centre. I loved the colours John has chosen for the walls. Bedding and towels were all very clean however no soap in bathroom, bring your own. John came across a little grumpy towards us at first, however once we got to know him I enjoyed chatting about the history of the house over breakfast in the sunny dining room. A huge selection of cereals to choose from. I would definetly stay again.More

My sisters and I stayed here for two nights in a huge bright room on the ground level. Although not a 5 star hotel, the room was bright and comfortable and warm. Towels were changed daily. Extra Teabags or milk is available from the kitchen at any time.Breakfast, while simple was more than adequate and served in a bright dining room. John is certainly a character and on first meeting does appear to be a little gruff as he gives information about the rules. We had read other reviews so knew what to expect so went with an open mind and a willingness to recognise that it takes all types to make up the world. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our politeness was reciprocated as John realised we appreciated the work he has put into his home and the pride he has. People are so quick to judge anyone who is a little different. If you want a sanitised hotel room with no human contact then this is not the place for you. We walked into the city easily and also caught the bus a few times. All very easy.

It's not a fancy hotel, but I enjoyed the personal touch of B&B service. The host is very helpful to give you advice. The decor has a touch of old charm.Very conveniently located at the fringe of Wellington CBD, walking distance to Te Papa Museum, waterfront, Courtenay Place and Cuba Street, after a day of activities I came back to this guesthouse felt calm and rest well in my spacious single room with a double bed. Next day morning, breakfast in the bright room overlooking the Wellington city, with a full range of cereals and hot eggs on toast, I started another exciting day of exploration.

Warm and cozy, private bathroom was clean, John was welcoming and friendly. Would recommend to anyone traveling to Wellington. Breakfast is served early, which helps when on a business trip. Will book again.

This guy is a walking disaster - crude, rude and undesirable. Thinking the place had charm ... it looked like something out of Coronation Street. The place is musty and hugely uninviting - esp the downstairs 'dungeon'. He is doing Wellington a huge disservice. DO NOT stay at this dump.
